John - looks nice - official pressures for the CR500s on an SLR/R500 are 18/20 - but the advice above is well won !

Correctomundo - the saloon style doors lead into the back of the garage 
- the owner was addicted to cleaning the "7". So much so that he was polishing the nose cone when he was selling us the car ! He used to jack the car up and then clean the underside with white spirit. Seemed to go through litres of aluminium polish too. Fair play to him !
For info :- jshand123 ( my father ) is 60 this weekend so go easy on him at KH
- however, once he learns to trust the new beastie I suspect he'll be pretty handy at the wheel. If you ever come across a Red Sport Ka on the Stockimuir Road you'll have fun tyring to pass him on the twisties

Where the se7eners live and say hello also.
A good suggestion for tyre pressures seems to be 22 psi HOT which amounts to about 18 psi cold.
Take your pressure gauge with you.
Some people like to run the rears a bit softer than the fronts - it's very personal on a se7en as EVERY car is different,depends who built it and they all have different bits and pieces on them.
Now with half an engine
